The excitement was palpable as Sofia Vergara and fiancé Joe Manganiello landed in Palm Beach, Florida on Thursday ahead of their big day.

The Modern Family star, 43, was dressed comfortably in a loose crop T-shirt that exposed her taut tummy, an ivory cardigan and distressed jeans.

Her loose hair spilled over her shoulders and across her cheeks as she puttered outside to the curb with her muscly man.

Joe, 38, was ready to do good in camouflage trousers, black zippered jacket over a white shirt and neon green trainers.
